1. Preamble
NIELIT is an autonomous scientific society of Department of Electronics and Information
Technology (DeitY), Ministry of Communications & Information Technology, Govt. of India.
NIELIT’s Shimla centre offers courses in the technologies like Embedded Systems, Hardware-
Networking, MATLAB, PCB Designing, Cloud Computing, Android and other areas of Information
Technology and Electronics. It has also organized various free training programmes for SC/ST
and Minority community under different Government Schemes from time to time.
The Government of India launched the 'Scheme for Financial Assistance to Select States for Skill
Development in ESDM Sector' in November 2013. The scheme was aimed at enhancing the
skilling capacities in ESDM (Electronics System Design and Manufacturing) Sector through public
and private sector for students/unemployed youth belonging to other disciplines. The detail of
the scheme is available on ESDM portal https://esdm-skill.deity.gov.in.
The purpose of this document is to invite application for accrediting Training Partners in the
state of Himachal Pradesh for the implementation of Skill Development Scheme ESDM sector
funded by Department of Electronics and Information Technology (DeitY), MOCIT Govt. of India.
2. Schedule:
Application forms received till the last day of month will be scrutinized in first week of next
month
3. Objectives:
The objective of the scheme was to provide financial assistance to select 8 states (in phase I) for
facilitating skill development for 90,000 persons in ESDM sector for improving their
employability. Subsequently in December 2014, the Government of India enhanced the scope of
the scheme (with minor variations in fund flow) to the rest of the country. The new scheme
envisaged as 'Scheme for Skill Development in ESDM for Digital India' aims to skill 3,28,000
candidates. Both the schemes will run concurrently and gives a cumulative target of training
4,18,000 candidates in the next 04 years for gainful employment in ESDM Sector. The list of

7. Who Can Apply for Accreditation :
Education plays a vital role in the development of any nation. Therefore, there is a premium on both
quantity (increased access) and quality (relevance and excellence of academics programs offered) of
higher education. Like in any other domain, the method to improve quality remains the same that
is, finding and recognizing new needs and satisfying them with products and services of HIGH
standards.
NIELIT ESDM accreditation is a quality assurance scheme for technical education. It is open to all
AICTE/NCVT approved Institutions and those centers which are already empanelled/accredited by

Hardware (CHM-O/A Level) recognized Institutions will be approved for ESDM courses. Under Class B
accreditation, the existing AICTE/Central/State Govt./ Technical Board/Polytechnic/ITIs / NCVT
approved Institutions will be approved for the ESDM courses on a self-accreditation model. Besides,
